I once lived in a large apartment complex.

Ignore them, it is all about you and your daughter...no on else. Your daughter will let you know when she wants to go it alone
I am not talking any risk. I appreciate what you said. When I read your post I felt may be their guilt they blow up on me and try to drag me also in to it. NO taking a risk is not worth at all. It is always a joy walk to school as they grow so fast.
